Best Lynx Player Minneapolis 2009 - Seimone Augustus

Seimone Augustus does a little bit of everything on the basketball court—she's a smart passer, excellent rebounder, and athletic defender—but it's her scoring ability that really sets her apart. Last season the graceful six-footer outscored all but two WNBA players (19.1 points per game) thanks to a mid-range game and off-the-screen footwork that puts most NBAers to shame. Expect Augustus to lead the perennially improving Lynx to the playoffs next season. Twin Cities basketball fans willing to trade dunks for wins would be wise to check in.
